56 Key Insights For smaller airports with few instrument approach procedures, basic obstruction assessment can be conducted by the application of FAR Part 77 criteria and the use of handheld equipment and basic calculations. The FAA and state aeronautics agencies may offer useful obstruction evaluation resources for airports with no access to advanced evaluation tools.

58 Best Practices for Airport Obstruction Management Guidebook While the SAV tool assesses the risk associated with each penetration, it is most useful for the analysis of 20:1 visual area surfaces for most straight-in approaches and 30:1 surfaces. The tool does not evaluate offset approach conditions, excessive DA conditions, or approaches with VDPs outside 10,000 feet.

A number of identified airspace analysis solutions were tailored to analysis of the airport or terminal airspace for criteria that are important to airline planners and performance engineers, such as traffic flow and airspace capacity, rather than to criteria important for airport obstruction management.
